SeanJ Posted October 31, 2002 Share Posted October 31, 2002 Mr Lange posted on a previous thread: "Not a stupid question at all. This information is included in all our published literature, though I don't believe it appears on our website. For the record, NGC recognizes the following variety categories: Half cents by Cohen numbers Large cents by Sheldon (1793-1814) and Newcomb (1816-57) numbers Half dimes (1794-1837) by Logan-McCloskey numbers Dimes (1796-1837) by John Reich numbers Quarter dollars (1796-1838) by Browning numbers Half dollars (1794-1836) by Overton numbers Silver dollars (1794-1804) by Bowers-Borckardt numbers Silver dollars (1878-1935) by VAM numbers (8TF, 7/8TF, TOP-100 and HOT-50 varieties only) All varieties in the Red Book and the Cherrypickers' Guide NGC doesn't do Breen numbers and doesn't do any varieties that don't fall into one of the above categories. There's a $5 charge for variety attributions at the time of grading. Coins already holdered by NGC can receive an attribution for $10, which includes the cost of reholdering. Hope that helps. " Dimes he states they only lisy JR #s. The problem, JR#'s just dont work for seated dimes. My question: Dave, I would love to cross over some of my rarer seated dime varities. Would you list Ahwash or Greer numbers on these coins? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EVillageProwler Posted October 31, 2002 Share Posted October 31, 2002 Good question... How come NGC doesn't attribute the Seated stuff? Briggs for the 25c, W-B for the 50c... EVP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member: Seasoned Veteran DWLange Posted October 31, 2002 Member: Seasoned Veteran Share Posted October 31, 2002 The demand for most of the varieties in the various Seated Liberty books is so limited that it's not worth the programming effort to include them. Besides, the really good ones that do command a premium are in the Cherrypickers' Guide or will be down the road, and NGC recognizes those varieties.

SeanJ Posted October 31, 2002 Author Share Posted October 31, 2002 David, Wow... Thank for for a quick reply! So lets say for instance a 1841-O Small O closed buds. It would only be labeled by its FS# or the FS# & "small O closed buds" (or something to that effect)? Thanks Sean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member: Seasoned Veteran DWLange Posted October 31, 2002 Member: Seasoned Veteran Share Posted October 31, 2002 The label for this variety will read: 1841 O CLOSED BUD 10C FS-003.3 MS 67 (you wish!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanJ Posted October 31, 2002 Author Share Posted October 31, 2002 Mark, Hey, I like that. Works for me. [MS 67 (you wish!)] I do, because its only a MS66 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
